I, for one, simply don't plan to live beyond 40.

I didn't plan to live up to 30, but here I am. And honestly don't really see any reasons why it would be different for any other number until some major health issue.

I don't think I even have the luxury of choosing. I think it will be decided for me, because I am a minority under an imminent regressive violent fascist regime.

If you're much younger than, say, 35, it probably won't be an issue anyway.

I would say we still have 10-20 years... 5 is a little pessimistic. /s

Many ways to end up there. Falling chronically ill is an easy to understand one, even depression can leave you completely unable to get or keep a half-decent job, but many of the better-paying jobs also require some amount of physical fitness. And if you live in the US, any kind of emergency can single-handedly wipe out all of your savings.

Also spending some time in prison might do it, which often happens for bullshit charges. Or just plain old generational economic deprivation - it's a feedback loop!
